A fellow travels through the country
selling eggs for SO a dozen and con.
tracts to take all the chickens Matched
from them at SO each, representing
that they are a valuable breed. When
the rural housewife has kept these
eggs under a setting hen a month or
more until "Biddy" deserts her nest

and it is discovered that the eggs are
boiled.
Quarterly meeting services will

All are invited. A full attendance of
the members of the Quarterly Confer

On Thursday last, the Italian, who
gave his name as Mortanio, arrested
for the trunk robbery at East Hick-
ory on March 30th, and now confined
in Jail, received through the mails a
book securely enclosed in a wrapper,
postmarked New York City. Sheriff
Agnew being suspicious examined the
same, and found secreted in the cover
of the book neat steel saw, size about
one inch in width and six inches in
length. Nothing further than the
postmark was found, to denote who
the prisoners accomplice was in this
liberation scheme.

The issues of the old land-law and
free grass campaign is revived TO only
a feeble extent in the pending trouble
between the Rocking Chair Cattle
Company of Collingsworth county,
In ordering settlers on school lands
within their extensive enclosure to
vacate Immediately. The settlers have
located on the lands to secure n first
claim to their purchase as soon as they
are put Oh the market, and the cattle
company disputes their right to share
the enjoyment of the free grass, pend
iug the Classification of the land. The
settlers respond by saying to the cat
tie company. "You have these lands
illegally enclosed and we will not
vacate." Gov. Ross has sent Gen. W.
Z. Hardeman TO investigate the re-
ported and threatened evictions. In
talking of this matter Gov. Ross says
that "if all parties will honestly COM
ply with the present law. it will
not only result in greatly
augmenting the school fund, but will
people that country in few years.
That is what these lands were set apart
for-school purposes-but the cattle
men who have so long enjoyed the
free range and unlimited control Of
all that country, find it hard to realize
the fact that these lands were set
aside for the sustainance Of Tree educa-
ton and not for the monopoly of cat
tie companies. Gov. Ross, however
will soon give them another lesson on
that subject.

WHEN he Western Union bought the
b. Il o. telegraph line, it was generally
believed that the rates would be adj
vanced by the monopoly. But the
telegraph to-day brings the news that
the directory has resolved not to raise
the rate except at points where com
petition had brought messages for
long distances down to 10 and IL cents,
and there was II loss in that business !;
and il was further resolved that wher-
ever possible the rate would be re-
duced. This is fair, and it the W. u.
will keep on force enough TO serve
the public promptly, and not allow a
letter to pass message on the way.
ali is apt to 90 well between the tcle-
giaph monopoly and the public.

THE people are beginning to lose
faith in the DALLAS HERALD since it
told the story about the young lady
swallowing the Arkansas tadpole,
which turned into frog aud had to
be cut out OF her stomach. News
papers should make their stories
reasonable Paris Good Things.
WHAT would The Good Things
call reasonable story! Had
the ERALD said the iadpole turne !
TO a cat fish, or that the toad frog
came out through the stomach UNI
aided, or that il was wiggle-tail she
swallowed and which turned 60 a
frog, the Good Things would doubt
less have believed the story. How

by reporter who is not on duty now,

vouch for it in every particular.
